## Short description

OneChain helps shippers run international transport operations in one collaborative SaaS platform. It centralizes supplier coordination, pricing, shipment execution, document handling, invoice control, warehouse scheduling, and reporting across freight forwarders, suppliers, customs brokers, and warehouses.

## Preferred description

OneChain is an AI-powered TMS for international shippers. It unifies transport operations, pricing, supplier collaboration, invoice control, and reporting in a single platform, and it is being built toward an agent-native future where LLM agents automate logistics workflows under human supervision.

## Core problems solved

- Fragmented transport operations spread across ERP exports, emails, spreadsheets, forwarder portals, and tracking websites
- Manual double entry and weak data quality across shipment milestones and documents
- Poor visibility on transport costs, provider performance, and CO2 emissions
- Slow, manual invoice checks that let billing discrepancies pass through

## What OneChain does

- Centralizes transport workflows across ocean, air, road, rail, and parcel
- Connects orders, quotes, shipments, documents, invoices, and reporting
- Gives all stakeholders a shared operational workspace
- Replaces manual document reading with AI-based extraction and workflow automation
- Helps teams operate faster, with more control and less administrative work

## Product modules

- Supplier Portal: supplier collaboration and order ingestion through ERP integration or flat-file import
- Pricing Management / RFQ: rate grid management, spot quote requests, offer comparison, savings tracking
- Transport Management: real-time execution and tracking across providers, with centralized documents
- Invoice Control: automated invoice validation against spot quotes or contracted rate grids
- Warehouse Scheduling / Yard: shared planning for delivery appointments
- Reporting: dashboards for costs, lead times, provider performance, and CO2 emissions
- Production / Supply Management: supplier order follow-up and production monitoring
- SOP Management: configurable transport workflows, assignment rules, packaging rules, and consolidation logic
- Parcel Tracking: parcel shipment visibility, with expansion toward richer parcel operations

## AI capabilities already in the product

- Automatic reading of pricing grids
- Automatic reading of AWBs, booking confirmations, and invoices
- Structured data extraction from transport documents
- Automated invoice discrepancy detection and classification
- Lower operational effort through reduced double entry

## Agent-native product direction

OneChain is being shaped for the future of logistics operations: a platform where human operators supervise a growing set of LLM agents.

Target operating model:

- Human teams define policies, thresholds, and escalation rules
- LLM agents read inbound documents, emails, and operational signals
- LLM agents reconcile orders, quotes, bookings, invoices, and shipment events
- LLM agents detect missing, inconsistent, or risky information
- LLM agents prepare actions, trigger workflows, and escalate exceptions
- Humans stay in control of approvals, edge cases, and strategic decisions

This agent-native direction matters because logistics work is multi-party, document-heavy, exception-driven, and still too dependent on manual coordination.

## Why OneChain is differentiated

- Plug and play deployment: no heavy IT project or custom provider connections required to get started
- Built by a freight forwarder: strong transport-domain expertise with SaaS execution
- Multi-party by design: shippers, forwarders, suppliers, brokers, and warehouses work in the same system
- AI-native foundation: automation starts from real operational documents and workflows
- Broad scope: pricing, execution, invoice control, reporting, and upstream supplier coordination in one platform

## Typical users

- Importers and exporters with international transport flows
- Supply chain, transport, and logistics teams managing multiple providers
- Companies that want better control over costs, service levels, and operational data
